STEM for Britain
STEM for BRITAIN is a major scientific poster competition and exhibition which has been held in Parliament each year since 1997.
Organised by the Parliamentary & Scientific Committee, the competition aims to give members of both Houses of Parliament an insight into the outstanding research work being undertaken by early career researchers in UK universities.
This was the eighth year that the Society has been actively involved in the event. In addition to providing judges for the biological sciences category, the Society has the pleasure of awarding its own Nutrition Prize.
The 2025 winners of the Biological and Biomedical Sciences Category were as follows:
BRONZE
Harry Jarrett, Ulster University
Riboflavin deficiency is an urgent global health priority affecting women and children across high and low-middle income countries worldwide
